Tombstone erected by members of the Brisbane Grammar School Old Boys Association in memory of George Rilatt who was janitor and messenger at the school for 51 years.

In 1872, George Rilatt was appointed the first caretaker of the Brisbane Grammar School at the age of 28. He was a valued assistant of the first headmaster Mr Thomas Harlin. His duties at the school were not merely confined to the duties of caretaker but also he was the trusted messenger of the trustess and for many years of his service he attended to the banking of the school's funds. In his spare time his hobby was music and Rilatt's orchestra became famous in Brisbane at a time when orchestra's were few and far between and his services as a conductor were very much in demand. He died in June 1924.
